TRANSCRIPT +

Migrants prepare themselves to face another night along the Greek border.
They are virtually stuck, as European leaders met in Brussels for a two-day summit aiming to find ways to stem the influx.
Here seeking warmth --- they find a settlement already battered by flooding rains, illnesses
A migrant from Pakistan says there are few options.
(SOUNDBITE) (English) MAN FROM PESHAWAR, PAKISTAN, YASAR, SAYING:
"We don't know what we are going to do, but we just...we are stuck here, we don't know what to do. We cannot go back, they are not open, the borders, so we have no idea what to do. They must, have, to think of these people who are here for too long."
And then comes the night.
It comes as the EU announces it has a common position to offer Turkey.
It comes as Greece's Prime Minister is calling for help.
So they pass the time as best they can.
With music, dance and hope.
